Rapper Playboi Carti continues to climb up the Billboard Hot 100 with his two Hit singles “Magnolia” coming in no.29 and “Woke Up Like This” coming in at no.76. Unfortunately it's not looking good for the new XXL Freshman. Carti was arrested Thursday night 7/6/17 at LAX for domestic battery.

TMZ reported that he was involved in a outrageous altercation with his girlfriend of 3 years as they exited the terminal. Some witnesses on the scene claims that both Carti and his girlfriend began shoving each other roughly. Witnesses claim the shoving led to him pushing her and then grabbing her backpack and forcefully pushing her into an Uber.

When police arrived, Carti told them that he snatched his girlfriend's phone from her and admitted to grabbing her by her backpack to pull her out of the terminal. The rapper said that she hit him, but he was not injured. Witnesses nearby says she slapped him in the face. His girlfriend told the police that Carti wanted her to call her mother to check in, but she didn't want to call her.

Carti was then arrested Thursday night 7/6/17 for misdemeanor domestic battery while his girlfriend was let go without any charges. The next day Carti was released on a $20,000 bond.​
